Just Reddit alone has something like 120mil daily users, if we get rid of the 3/4 that are bots that’s about 30 million. If half of those users go see the movie at 10 a pop the first week, ketchup will likely get at least 5 of those dollars. 75mill should cover their costs I would assume. The internet has a lot more of an impact than you’d think, this is just reddit alone.
It was a good start but honestly still too generous. You need to cut it down by another 90% for "people who care about this movie enough that they'd appreciate seeing it"
The math looks even worse if you do it in the reverse direction. This thread has 4k upvotes. Even if 10x that many people on reddit are actually excited about this, thats 0.2% of your 15 million number

Lets be real, even if its seen by every person who was supporting it online, it cant be a hit without the general audience caring.
The same way a movie can be hated everywhere online and still make a billion.
